Ukraine launched drone attacks against targets in Moscow, Smolensk, Saint Petersburg, and neighboring regions, responding to a recent Russian strike on Poland. The attacks also hit an oil terminal in the Leningrad region and several sites in Moscow Oblast. Russia officially claims effective air defense operation, while disruptions and damage to infrastructure, including airports, have been reported.
Poland has demanded that Russia withdraw its forces from the Belarus border. In turn, Russia threatened to increase troop presence and conduct tougher military exercises, which prompted concern among NATO members. Western leaders—including those from Poland, the US, and the EU—are coordinating their responses and discussing deeper defense cooperation with Ukraine.
Meanwhile, Kyiv is hosting diplomatic discussions with officials from the UK, Poland, and the US. Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk has called to stop blaming Ukraine for the incident in Poland, holding Russia squarely responsible.
The commentary urges allied unity, more effective support for Ukraine, and a joint response to ongoing threats. The video also highlights a fundraiser for training Ukrainian drone operators, an urgent need as qualified specialists to counter drone attacks are in short supply.
Further, it addresses NATO support, unequal financial aid distribution between Poland and Ukraine, Donald Trump’s ambiguous position, and proposals for new US sanctions against Russia’s partners. The analysis stresses that only consolidated Western and Ukrainian efforts can thwart Russian aggression.
Emphasis is placed on the need for new technology, the training of drone operators, and stronger air defense to protect Ukrainian skies.
